Performing Arts at Dixons City Academy
At Dixons City Academy, our Performing Arts department is a vibrant hub of creativity, talent, and opportunity. From acting and singing to dance and musical theatre, our students are encouraged to explore their passions, build confidence, and perform to the highest standards.
We’re proud to have built a strong reputation for our spectacular productions, recent highlights include Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Grease, and Matilda. Each show brings together students from across the academy, showcasing their teamwork, professionalism, and artistic flair.
Our commitment to excellence continues long after our students leave us. Many of our Performing Arts alumni go on to achieve incredible success on stage and screen, performing in major theatre productions, West End shows, and even global franchises such as The Hunger Games.
